J's system vs supercharger
I guess a blower and Final Drive might work out then
I was only afraid that since it zips thru the RPM's so quick that i wouldnt stay in boost long enough that it would benefit me but at the same time i would get to boost at the lower RPMs quicker as well?
I'm figuring that with longer gears i would stay in boost longer meaning staying in the optimum power band longer?

Mind the fact that a SC kit is approx. 60 lbs added to the very front of the car. Also, with so much more power, putting the power down is going to be an issue with the drivetrain (i.e. clutch kit), and then the through the tires (you will obviously need wider tires preferrably R compound). If you honestly feel you are an experienced enough driver (you run similar times to other S2000 owners that track frequently) then I'd put my money into a nice suspension (KW, JRZ, Penske, Moton, etc.) setup with a spare set of light wheels and R comp. tires. Though many will argue, I think a well track prepped S2000 (susp. stripped, tires, roll cage, etc. etc.) will perform better at the track than a fairly stock high HP S2000.
Good luck.
first thing i did to my car was all handling after almost having the car a year i think i want to blow it
i have
-tein type FLEX
-cusco front and rear struts
-cusco front and rear sways
-cusco lower tie bar
-cusco subframe
-x brace

front and rear strut bars are useless on this car. rear already came with one and front wont' make any difference.
Stock swaybars are hollow swaybars, the cuscos are solid steel. Your just adding weight.
Only piece that adds any real benefit is the x-brace and you'll have guys argue even over that.
Suspension parts that DO help:
-Anti-bump steer kit
-The things that let's you have more than -2.5 camber up front and more than 3 to 3.5 in rear.
-Better tires and lighter wheels
-stiffer spring rates

Really, this is not to bash you, but your direction on handling is totally off.

A Gendron (spelling) or Comptech front sway bar is the only bar you need. Tires and wheels will make the biggest difference.
Also, if you are looking for track performance the Tein Flex are terrible. They don't even seem to be a good street suspension let alone track suspension. If you are serious about the track, you would have researched suspensions more and bought some JRZ's or Motons.
